Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:17.0) Gecko/17.0 Firefox/17.0
Build ID: 20120903063249

Steps to reproduce:

1. Integrated PDF.js was working in Aurora 16 and had worked properly in all revisions which included it.
2. Aurora updated to version 17 via http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/firefox-aurora/ubuntu
3. I restarted the browser.



Actual results:

I got a download dialog and blank white tab rather than the PDF I'd been reading. (And I now have "Always Ask" set in the preferences, so I should have at least got a dialog asking what should be done with it)


Expected results:

It should have opened in the built-in PDF.js like it used to.
